24 Killers : Embracing Love-De-Lic's Legacy

[@maraganger]

PATREON : www.patreon.com/maraganger TWITTER : twitter.com/maraganger God damn did I not expect this game to resonate with me so much but hey, what can you do. Ty again to Todd from Happy Shabby Games for sharing the love with me so I too could share it with the homies. B)

[@redalchemy7322]

It's hard not to love the concept of a game where it's core is vibing and hanging out

[@maraganger]

Very true haha !

[@LongSinceDead1]

Thank you for this video! Love-De-Lic’s legacy (and the legacy of the various studios it’s alumni would go onto create) is too important to be as obscure as it is. “Lack of Love” and “Rule of Rose” are two of my favorite games of all time, and games like “Moon”, “Chulip” and “Chibi Robo” fill me with so much happiness with their shameless emphasis on the importance of love. It’s interesting that all of these games, even the dark surreal psychological horror “Rule of Rose”, are about exploring the importance of love and its necessity in our lives.

[@DanielSantosAnalysis]

It honestly blows me away how you keep finding these hidden gems, also this game SCREAMS "long lost late era PS1 game" in the best kind of way. I love the look of the game, it has such a cozy vibe to it. Honestly I could sit for hours just watching you speak from the heart about why these games are cool.

[@maraganger]

Aw thank you so much Daniel, that means a lot to hear. ; v ;

[@KBash]

You're getting better with every vid, respect for putting in the work, seriously!

[@maraganger]

Aw thank you so much ! Gotta keep it up to make the homies proud. B)

[@BaldEaglePC]

The sound design of the game is so mellow. I could see myself playing just to chill with the music and SFX

[@ekeneanyanike7013]

I wrote my high school English final about Love De Lic, I have so much love for this game company and their philosophies. More games need to have the vibe of just meeting silly guys

[@Chariot_Rider]

So, I'm thinking about what you had to say about time systems in these sorts of games and I can't help but think back to Pathologic 2, one of the first games I played with a time system. One of the fascinating things about Pathologic 2 is that, where you might expect it to ease you into the game so you can learn the mechanics before the timer gets really oppressive, the first day of Pathologic 2 is extraordinarily intense. For story reasons I won't spoil, almost everyone in town hates you and random NPCs will try beating you up, potentially wasting your limited time and resources. From a storytelling perspective, its extremely compelling, though I can't deny that it throws new players far into the deep end. Ultimately, I think its good that 24 Killers aimed for a cozier introduction to its timed schedule, though I can't help but be fascinated by other approaches to introducing players to scheduled content

[@DonPetals]

Thank you for putting 24 Killers on my radar. I just completed Moon for the first time this year and I am digging into the LDL legacy games next and now 24 Killers as well!

[@maraganger]

Aw hell yeah, hope you have a safe trip through them ! :>

[@xanakina]

Looooove the vibe!! The transitions were so cute this time! Very old game wallpaper vibes!! Wonderful job again !! Also the music choices were so 😙🤌

[@maraganger]

Aw thank you so much !!

[@Lexithepoptart]

Your narration is incredibly fun. I do not know a thing about this game but was invested for the whole video.

[@Skyehoppers]

If I had a nickel for every time Maraganger has introduced me to a game with a quirky, unique, esoteric art style with the word "killer" in the title Id have two nickels, which isnt a lot but its pretty cool it happened twice

[@maraganger]

Y'know, yeah now that you mention it, it is kinda odd haha !

[@JuneCrashRadio]

FOR THE HOMIES!

[@loudlawnmower]

lack of love is def one of the weirdest games I own/ever played!

[@Sundiny]

All those games are so heartwarming. All about sharing love and passion with others, and doing it in their own way. Glad that someone is took on the torch in such a beautiful unique way. I can’t wait to play this: thank you for making this video

[@maraganger]

Aw hell yeah, hope you'll enjoy ! :>

[@DeathAlchemist]

gotta finish this video later. there needs to be a whole lineage and spreadsheet chart of love-de-lic and where each of the devs went afterwards with which game they worked on. anyways you got yourself a sub

[@thydungeongal]

You'd sold this game to me around the five-minute mark. Went and bought it and have been playing it for a couple of hours now. It's so good y'all.

[@maraganger]

Aw hell yeah, hope you'll vibe with it ! :>

[@XyNoST]

You totally dropped your new episode at a moment I needed the most (Poste Canada just raised my anxiety through the fucking roof...) Excellent video, I didn't knew about this one and it looks like a really cool game ! Will def check this out for sure, Thanks Mara ! :)

[@maraganger]

[@dandiaz1992]

Ive been watching your old vídeos and it's really cool how u get better with each one, this channel is vibes i like how unique the stuff u talk about is. Anyhow, loving it ❤️.

[@maraganger]

Thank you so much ! The older stuff's a little rough around the edges but you're right, it's worth it just to see that improvement. ; v ;

[@juanumana5688]

That Dali Town soundtrack in the BG had me going full nostalgia

[@melvinsantos9756]

This looks awesome thanks for making a video about this, hopefully it gets ported to consules like switch and Xbox. Hopefully with a physical release too ❤

[@onetitwndr]

Much love to all! Take the love n spread it

[@arthurjeannin3357]

Loved the video as always, Mara!! I played the game at release and was super glad to see it get some recognition

[@maraganger]

Hell yeah, glad you did ! :>

[@docbaker3333]

Love this also Please cover the other games by love-de-lic members like the Skip inc trilogy Giftpia, Chibi robo and of course the most based of all Nintendo games the one the only Captain Rainbow.

[@maraganger]

That's all coming in the near future but y'know I gotta start with the one and only Moon. B)

[@goldengolem3341]

Great video as always! Have you perchance checked out Hylics 1 and 2? I think it could be right up your alley! Cheers!

[@maraganger]

Thank you ! I have indeed, been using a lot of footage from both of them in previous videos but a proper vid on them is in the card in the near future. B)

[@KirbyCurbwhy]

DANG A 24 KILLERS VIDEO! That was pretty quick 👀 I should get around to playing this game sometime, LDL vibes all over!

[@Hunari]

Amazing video as always! I gotta ask though, were you inspired by Thorhighheels and/or Hazel? Noticing similarities here and there in terms of games covered as well as the chill/frank approach and even some music choices while still insufflating your personality, making each video such a treat to watch, regardless of the games (which are great too of course)

[@maraganger]

Thank you ! Also yeah I'm homies with Thor. B)

[@Hunari]

@@maraganger Ohh I see x) Awesome to see how many people he influenced!

[@Flingus435.]

Another banger

Hey i discovered your channel i think by chance, i was looking into youtube to see if someone had posted a gameplay of planet laika and boom i fell in love with your channel. I hope in the future i get the time to enjoy 24 killers but for the moment i have 1 single question what is the ost you used at 3:50 to introduce 24 killers... i don't think i heard anything so peaceful. Thank you

[@maraganger]

Aw thank you, glad you've enjoyed my shit ! The song at 3:50 is Kadishu Town from Lost Kingdoms 2. :>

[@TheThePerson]

This is unrelated but have you played Gnosia? You seem like you might like it. Cool video as always 👍
